Research Interests

My research program explores the interaction of luminal contents including microbes with the gastrointestinal mucosa that can lead to inflammatory disease and associated epithelial cancer. I have focused on the role of oxidative stress in modulating host responses to bacteria, antigens and inflammatory processes and examining the multi-functional regulatory protein, AP endonuclease-1 as it regulates epithelial cell responses. Our general approach has been to study signaling events in cultured cell lines and to validate the models using human tissues. As a clinician-scientist, gastroenterologist, I have been active in basic, translational, and clinical research.
